Date Created27th February 2020CommentsWayne Chapman As I remember, the Moreton brothers did the river stone boulder work there. Did one for me on a fence in Hokitika a bit later.

Kevin Voigt A lot of timber for this was cut at Fox mill Freitas timbrers I carted a lot of it, used to deliver after work ,bar was ist part fins enough said

Roger Howell Now abandoned after flooding in about 2015.

John Paget I have been in it several times but it lacked something other pubs on the coast had. The place was cold, the service non existent. It was just one of those awful Russian style hotels built by the tourist hotel chain.
